Building a gaming pc that i'm also going to be doing some rendering with. hence the i7 not the i5.
Will be overclocking the cpu quite a bit and running a custom water cooling kit.

If any of you could help me pick the appropriate motherboard for my build
and also, what custom water cooling kit you recommend (and which 980 ti should i get?)
I wanted the r9 295x2 but i don't think it will be as good in the games i currently play
Loving Arma 3, AC & DayZ right now

I would really recommend the Asus Z97 A. It has awesome features, and can handle anything you throw at it. As for 980's I would recommend either MSI or EVGA for coolers. 295x2 is a beast at gaming, only problem is it lacks in renders and runs very hot.
